IT is now definitely known that the Grown Prince Frederick William of Germany is af- ficted with cancerous growth in the throat or at the roots of the larynx, similar to that which killed Gen. Grant, and from the same cause, smoking. The aged emperor, his father, is very feeble and near his end. The prince desires not to disturb him with knowl- edge of his own condition and 80 refuses to undergo an operation, and with or without this the result is likely to be the same-speedy death. The younger prince, son of Frederick William, is 2s years of age and not as popular with the mass of the people as are his father and grandfather.

 NO CREDIT TO CHICAGO.
 It is nc credit to Chicago that it has been nursery of red Jagged and red handed anarchism. A strong point was made by Capt. Black, the prisoners coun- sel, at the hearing before the governor on the application for clemency.
 During said reading of the petition Capt. Black said that for years previously the petitioners had openly and publicly delivered the same addresses, and uttered the doctrines and advocated the identical mode of agitation in language equally in- hammatory to that used on the night Of the Haymarket riot, with the complete and acquiesced knowledge of the city au- thorities, and that the mayor of the city was in attendance at the Haymarket meet ing up to within twenty minutes of the time the bomb was thrown, and that after wards the mayor (Harrison) called at the Desplanes street police static and told the officers everything vas peaceful, and the reserve police might be allowed to go home. ~E .. -s....s -@
 ''Do I understand you to say" inter- rupted the governor, tsthat at no previous meeting of this kind there was any police interference--that this was the first time P
 There was evidently deep impression made upon his excellency by Capt. Black 5 reply, i'll which he assured the governor khak oH frso1r ho record of the trial the testimony of Mayor Harrison as to his observance and actions of that awful night. ..-. ..
 Fortunately Garter Harrison is no longer mayor of Chicago, and better public sentiment prevails there. In every elec- ton since the Haymarket murder the issue of anarchism and Carter Harrisonism has been sguarely met, and by the voters en- phaticaily condemned. .~el
 In Hartford. Sunday, Rev. J. 0. Kim ball of the Unity church compared the ex- ecution of the Chicago williams to the cru cifixion of Christ, and defended the anarch- ists, who, he averred, were murdered in cold blood. The reverend gentleman, in : his supreme confidence in mans goodness, declared that "The destruction of law and y statues would leave us to be governed by natural laws or no prescribed law, and we should do right because it is our nature. The guidance of the laws of his nature are enough for the anarchist and the true an- aarchist is so pure he will be led absolutely right" :
 ''The People, an agitation organ print ed at Providence, came out last week with mourning column rules and articles lauda- tory of the martyrs to liberty" just hung at Chicago for killing policemen. Similar expressions here and there are fortunately smothered by the general indignation 4 rVyop kEoUo

Such policemen deserve protection.

Ned" to " Farmer. p"

FLAT CREEK, Mo, Sept. II, 1887.
Ed. Register Your correspondent
from Illinois pitches into me about the
side issues. First. he says for me to
hustle round and find some issue which
my party can adopt, and adopt in lam
guage that will have no uncertain
sound, next year. when we blow our
national baZoo.
Now, Mr.. " Farmer" who in the
name of common sense ever said that
the Democratic party wanted To adopt
any side issue? This is the very thing
that 1 opposed in my frat article. /
said the Democratic party needed no
issue except the broad platform upon
which it stands. / only emphasized
the fact that We, as Democrats, must
ignore these side issues that come up
in politics.
Again, you need not take the trouble
to shoot off your bazoo about the way
Prohibition is gaining ground, for I
ack knowledged that myself. l said that
our country was considerably agitated
over Prohibition. [ even went SO far
as to say that thought the day was
coming when this question would be
submitted in Missouri; but I urged my
| brother Democrats of Missouri to make
ready and strike it regular Texas
alow-pass it by and rally to our own
party banner, which advocates justice
and all that is right.
Again, sir. you say that every issue
was side issue at first. Let me inform
you just here that you are in error
Now. don't ask you to do anything
but refer to history in regard to this
point. Remember, sir, that we had no
real political parties until Washington's g
administration; then two parties arose:
the Federalist and Republican. TIE
Republican party was led by Randolph
and Jefferson, who oppased the United
States Bank and advocated States
Rights. This party retained its origin
al name until 1925, when it took the
name of Democratic party, and remains
the same uutil this day. You see the
name was changed, but that old JEFF
fersonian principle remains there just
tue same as 1t was when political par
Iron County register. [volume] (Ironton, Iron County, Mo.) 1867-1965, 1887-09-15

ties in the United States were born
Now, sir. will you say that Democracy
was once a side issue? / say, sir
that it never was. More than that, it
is the only party that has held itseil
aloof from all the side issues.
In regard to Weaver's quotation
from Dickson, I will say that you have
not only got onto the side track, but
have actually gone overheard into
something that does not in any way
relate to this discussion. Who cares
for James B. Weaver? He is cast of
from the old Greenback party and has
been taken in by you Republicans. Az
for the way senators are elected, am
very we'll satisfied. They are elected
by the people, indirectly.
AS for your"Land Question" ""SociaI
Problems" "Cranks and Anarchy
'Nihilism," &C., must say that
have never been guilty of reading all
of them. You see as / live away down
iere on Flat Creek l don't get to see SC
many of Spies editorials as you do,
Your "sphere of indefiniteness" is toe
great for me to get into my "noggin.'
You will have to tackle TX" with all
your cranky theories. He can hold you
down on them, and make you feel
rather small, too.
Now, "Farmer," before my Mary
Jane ever casts her ballot, you can bel
your peanut crop that we will have q
regular "rukus" in camp. Times will
be much warmer than they were in
Syracuse when Henry George and DR.,
McGlynn turned you Socialists out ol
the convention.
You need not dictate to me what
kind of timber will be used in my plat
form. My platform is already built.
1t was built by Thomas Jefferson and
is going to stand. We don't need any
other platform, either.
Now, sir, you Republicans, seeing
the grand old Democratic party in
power, and knowing that we will again
triumph in 1888, you are only too will.
ing to see us adopt some side issue
which would weaken our platform
We Democrats don't propose to &C,
like the Republicans-hold to the hare
and run with the hounds. We propose
to he one and the same thing-Democ-
racy and nothing else, now and forever

tesy due and cup of delicious coffee
and plenty of chat to boot, Mr.. J. l..
! Midyett, of Indian Creek, who had
piece of wheat, and after it grew to
about II inches high, some of his stock
frequented one place of four or five rods
square and eat off the wheat, from
which stumps suckers sprang up and
grew and matured fine crop of cheat.
If the center bud of. stalk of wheat
is killed. cut off or bitten off by stock,
and suckers spring up from the stump
of the wheat 1t will make cheat. Try
it, Mr.. E. AS long as wheat stools out
from the roots it will produce its kind.
Now. Mr.. E., next spring when your
you may know that it is wheat, take
your blade and cut an armfol-as Mr..
M. will tell you he did-allowing the
stubble to stand until harvest; then
examine again and you will find cheat.

The disease is very malignant. School
